Categories

Cleanliness
7.6
Rooms are often described as neat and clean but there are repeated mentions of inconsistent housekeeping (some days rooms not cleaned) and carpet/room maintenance issues.
Service
8.8
Front desk and housekeeping are repeatedly called friendly, helpful and hospitable; 24-hour helpline/staff onsite praised. A few service failures (delayed Wi‑Fi password, occasional lack of assistance) are noted but overall service sentiment is strong.
Location
8.7
Multiple positive mentions: convenient/central location, close to shopping and event start points. However, proximity to student areas contributes to noise at night.
Room Quality
6.8
Numerous maintenance and comfort issues: noisy rooms (student noise, industrial AC), broken fridge, microwave not heating, leaking toilet, windows not sealed, loose taps and door-lock problems—overall room quality is a notable weakness.
Amenities
7.5
Strong on security features, parking and smart entry systems; lacks in-room waste bins, safes, consistent TV access and some kitchen equipment. Biometrics/fingerprint access is convenient but has reliability problems for some guests.
Value for Money
8.4
Several guests explicitly call the property good value or exceeding expectations for the price, especially for short stays.
Food and Beverage
7.9
Little explicit commentary on food or F&B services; a few complaints relate to in-room appliances (fridge/microwave) affecting food storage/preparation rather than hotel F&B offerings.
Overall Experience
7.5
Overall stay is generally positive due to safety, helpful staff, location and value, but frequent noise, maintenance issues and occasional service lapses reduce the overall experience for several guests.

Pros:

Clean rooms, friendly staff help us alot with doors.

Cons:

Did not like the fingerprint keypads of doors. Had to call the staff every time when we want to enter our rooms. Fan or aircon will help in summer.

Cons:

We waited hours to get inside building the biometrics were not working. I did mention that its not working and was assured it was. We stood outside for hours with no one to help despite this being a 24hour facility.
